Please give us your feedback on this forum. What you would like to see, additional rules, ideas, suggestions, etc.

At this time, we don't have icons (obviously, huh?). We'll cross that bridge when the time comes. IMO, I don't think we need an icon for each individual company. That would get things cluttered fast. But if you have ideas for icons, let us know or post them below.

I disagree on that post. They offer a number of different products to different target groups. Unlike the GMs example, that company offers many different products from different companies to be tested.

Not to mention, a lot of the survey companies in this sub-forum offer PTs. I don't think it will be easy to decided which PT should be in Freebies Vs. Surveys.

Does that make sense?
Your not being paid an incentive to answer the questions theres a difference.

But then again, not every company pays you for a survey.

I'll have to talk with the other mods to get their opinions. Like anything else new, there will be kinks to work out.

I think this is wonderful. I think the survey's will be easier to keep up with this way. Although, I think there is another way to help organize things even better.
You could have a sub-forum named something like (see below)
1.Work From Home & Things
a. Survey's
b. BzzAgent, One2One type listings.
c. Focus groups
d. List places that earn you points for gift cards....like Boomertown, My points,Inbox Dollars, ect.


If someone finds a focus group listing then put it under focus groups,ect.

Leave the rest of the freebies section to other freebies. IE, makeup samples,totes, shampoo samples, shirts, ect.

Does that make any sense? I need more coffee. Anywho, just my 2cents.

If you need some new icons maybe sweepstake entry for survey and an icon for the word local indicating that its not a national countrywide one. Yes the Words FG for focus group.

I disagree with that though. I mean it even has "survey" as a user tag. And you need to qualify in order to get a PT. If that's the case, then my post on "Glamspotters", and half the other surveys dont belong here either.
Anything you need to "quailfy" for or take a survey, is still considered a survey. Either they all are or aren't. I would also like clarification on this.
As far as which PT's should be allowed in Freebies Vs. Surveys, either they ALL should, or shouldn't.


looking further, SheSpeaks doesnt belong here, and neither does the Allure thread either. They both are for PT's, so they should all be in one place. Or have a tag for PT's.

What about Icons to show the type of payment. Whether it be cash or gift card. Then maybe elaborate further on that idea with icons for amazon, itunes or whatever

Then, what would we do about the unofficial threads for 1 specific company? IIRC, they don't always have one form of payment. Sometimes GCs, or cash, or sweepstakes entries, etc.
